COMPANY DIS VICTORY.

Company d, First regiment, Mime
sofa National guard, has done well. 1t
has met in fair and open competition
some of the best militia companies in
the country and, with one exception,
defeated them all.
1t is even question with many
whether the relative places of the Mo-
bile rifles and Company ID should not
be reversed. But it is to be presumed
that the judges acted with perfect fair
ness and discrimination in awarding the
first prize to the former and the second
to the latter. AS it is, the honor done
Company ID is sufficiently great, but no
greater than its deserts warrant. The
members of the company have labored
hard and earnestly; they have not been
bOastful or oyer-cOnfdent, but at the
same time they possessed a resolute de-
termination to win if possible and, in
any event. to reflect credit upon them
selves, their city and their state. They
have succeeded admirably.
The city could not be prouder of them
had they won the first prize, and in
winning the second they have demon
strated that the faith put in them was
not in vain. Both the st. Paul company
and the Minneapolis company, though
the latter was not fortunate enough to
get place, have at all times MAIN
tanned bearing and exhibited an excel
lence that may well make them model
for the militia of other states.
Gratifying as the news is of Company
DIS success, it is in no degree surpris-
ing. 1t is just what the friends of the
Woodworking soldier boys expected, and
the company will find on it's return that
its efforts have been appreciated at
home.
1t is st. Paul's habit to carry all before
her when she makes an effort, and Com
pany ID has well maintained h-r repu-
tation.

HURON, Oak, May 3O.-An immense
thrOng took part in Memorial day cere-
monies here this afternoon. The exer-
ciseS were held in the Grand opera
house, under direction of Fitzpatrick
post, q. A. r., and were the most, i'm
preSSive ever witnessed here. All bust
ness was suspended. Gen. Hugh j..
Campbell, of Yankton, was orator, and
spoke for nearly two hours, being care,
fully listened to and frequently APP
plauded. When he gave expression to
the following words the applause was
deafening:
l now claim to speak for the people of Da-
kota without distinction of party whose in
terests are suffering, whose industries are
languishing, whose enterprises are crippled,
whose litigants and suitors are meeting with
a denial of justice i'll the courts, who are
taxed without representation, whose prop
erty interests are the sport and whim of de-
of school lands is being dispoiled and frit-
tered away without remedy, and who are
governed by government that is neither of
the people, by the people nor for the
unjustly and illegally and unconstitutionally
denied every right, despoiled of every liberty
and afflicted with every injustice and form
of tyranny named in the Declaration of In
dependence, and rebelled against by our own
forefathers of the Revolution. Shame on
government. an administration or Il depart
ment that thinks more of an insignificant
strip of land, that looks more carefully to the
rights of few struggling Indians, that is
more anxious about sectional or partisan
predominance than it is of the most valuable
interests. the most sacred rights and the
dearest liberties of 100000 American citi-
zens and freemen.
Judge Campbell was frequently ap-
plauded, and at the close of his address
was greeted with hearty congratulations
and compliments from scores who heard
hin. An original poem by Prof. Coler,
of New York, suggested by a visit to
the national cemetery at H oxville,
Tenn, was an important feature of the
exercises.

HANLAN DEFEATED.
Gaudaur an Easy Winner in the
Chicago Contest.

CHICAGO, May 30.cThree hundred
yards from the finish at the Calumet
course this evening Ned Hanlan, the
oarsman, turned an instant from the
pelting rain only to see. with frown in
his face, stunning defeat from Jacob
Gaudaur. The oars of the great eX-
champion dropped nervously into the
chOppy waters, as with dropping head
he pulled along dejectedly through the
rain six lengths behind the winner.
Seven thousand drenched and dripping
people on the banks gazed pityingly on
the loser, and then began wild cheer
for Gaudaur, who crossed the line Just
as the sun burst through the clouds and
ShOne on the countless umbrellas and
waves. When the two oarsmen first
came out on the course ready for a three
mile pull to decide which should be
called champion of America and carry
off $1,000 in stakes, the sky was leaden,
but apparently did not threaten rain. A
slight roughness of the water had no
lettering influence and the start was
made with promptnesS. Hanlan was at
once trifle in the lead, pulling a short
quick stroke, forty-twO to the minute.
Gaudaur kept close with long, steady
sweep, about hirty-eight to the minute.
Gradually Ha Ian forged ahead, and at
the end of tie first mile was fully
boats length in the lead. 1t had been
the gossip tn If Hanlan could lead to
the turn hey nearly certain winner,
but if Gaudal reached the buoy first
Hanlan would ever catch up on stern
chase. Great, therefore,, were the eX-
pectations of tnlan's friends to see
him nearing the turn ahead of Gaudaur
and gaining at the time. While all eyes
were Straining after the blue and scarlet
SpeckS in the distance, the wind fresh
ened and huge drops of rain began to
fall. The lake was soon lumpy from end
to end and the down-pour was almost
binding. Hanlan turned first two lengths
ahead; time, 1920. He was pulling
about thirty-ive strokes to the minute
at this point, and Gaudaur struck about
the same gait. Hanlan stopped an in
slant here for some purpose, but did
not lose the lead. He kept well to the
front, as from the start, until entering
the third mile. There Hanlan COM
menced to tlag his stroke, and so great
eXertion did it seem to require that
many believed his boat was leaking or
had shipped one of the choppy seas.
Gaudaur was
ROWING MAGNIFICENTLY.
He showed the same long. steady sweep
he had taken at the start, but faster.
With machine-like motion he passed
poor, struggling Hanlan. A boats
length OF water between them could be
seen, then another, at at last one more.
"Hanlan is BEATEN" murmured the
crowd. ''No, no." shouted others. "See
him squirt; see his squirt" And squirt
Hanlan did with vengeance. The null
tltudeS on the shore and atloat held their
breath, then. regardless of rain, tossed
